Hi
Since more and more people are using pen drives, I think in such case it is desirable to disable updating inode access time for each access to limit the wear and tear.
So I hope that the generated /etc/fstab can have noatime for the mount points, at least an option to enable so.
thanks

For which mount-points do you mean? /mnt/usb-sd*?

oops, my bad, it's there already. :-)

Hi,
I'd like to re-open this request since I've got an USB disk that is big enough to hold uncompressed root file system. I'm doing grml2hd to it now, and hope the generated fstab would have noatime in it.
thanks

What's the problem with adjusting /etc/fstab according to your needs on your own?
